If you like the Kumon system, you can save some money by using sites that provide free Math worksheets. An example - http://www.freemathworksheets.net/general-math.php
A site that is more comprehensive - covers Math and Language Arts - http://www.superteacherworksheets.com/index.html

Pro - This is an easy way to save the 100$ a month one would pay to a Kumon franchise for their worksheets. Con - Children are not accountable to any third parties, and this may lead to them slacking off. One more con is that at Kumon, they test the kid once in a while to see if he/she is ready for the next level. In the case of using free worksheets, parents would have to make that call, and decide what the next level should be. Again, just like in the case of Miss Maggie, these worksheets are good once the concepts have been taught, and only speed has to be developed.
Thank you for your suggestion. I am afraid to send my kids to Kumon Math & Reading because of all the child molestation cases at Kumon. After searching for Kumon reviews I finally found your website and am very happy. Thank you very much.
ReplyDeleteWe quit Kumon! We didn't want Kumon pedophiles and child molesters at the Kumon learning center touching our children. We don't trust the Kumon tutors so much so as to endanger our children. bye bye
ReplyDeletePlace where children are molested are a danger for children and Kumon is one of them.
ReplyDeleteRegarding child molestation cases - My kids attended a couple of centers, and there were no safety or molestation issues at these places. The owners ran a tight ship.
